CHAPTER 228: MISSING PETER (2/2)

“In the evening? Good, I’ll contact you again at that time. By the way, are you in New York now?” Captain Rogers seemed regretful to hear Mirage Knight’s answer but then he asked again.

“Yeah, I’m in New York.” It seemed that Lin Rui had heard a little anxiety in Captain Rogers’s words, and his tone became more serious.

Did something happen? But shouldn’t SHIELD be dealing with the remnant of Hydra at this time? The completion of my mainline quest is also slowly rising. Captain Rogers didn’t say anything about what he wanted with Lin Rui, but Lin Rui had already made several guesses.

Speaking of which, Lin Rui only reminded Fury of Hydra at the beginning and he did not contribute much to the war that happened some time ago, but SHIELD’s attack on Hydra has also counted as Lin Rui’s mission and the mainline quest has been slowly reaching its completion rate, even if he doesn’t know how the calculation is being done? But this is also a good thing for Lin Rui and he won’t bother with this.

“Then I’ll come to you in New York in the evening.” After making an appointment with Lin Rui, Captain Rogers hangs up the phone, never telling Lin Rui what he wants to see him for.

“What’s the matter?” Lin Rui, who also hung up the phone, thought silently.

Lin Rui would not know that Captain Rogers is coming here to see him because he saw Bucky and his confrontation in the fight. After watching the surveillance video, Steve felt that Mirage Knight should have known the identity of the Winter Soldier, but he never told him anything. Moreover, from the monitoring point of view, Lin Rui apparently held back his strength on Bucky from the very beginning. Later, when Bucky fell from the corner of the wall collapsed by the missile, Lin Rui obviously intended to rescue him but was he was unfortunately left behind as a second missile hit him.

So, now Steve, who has a lot of grievances against Fury, doesn’t want to go to Fury to ask about Bucky and he is instead going to Lin Rui to learn about Bucky. This mysterious Vigilante should have the information Steve wants to know.

…

“Hello Aunt Mei, is Peter home?” Soon, Lin Rui came to Peter’s house, and it was Aunt Mei who was at home that opened the door to Lin Rui.

“Oh, Jackson! Didn’t Peter go to school?” Aunt Mei, who let Jackson into the living room, asked Lin Rui a little strangely. Peter had already gone to school in the morning.

“Uh … No, Peter was at school. But I had an appointment with him to do an after-school assignment, but he ran away first, so I came here.” Lin Rui knew that Peter was skipping class when he heard Aunt Mei’s words, so in order not to make Aunt Mei worry, Lin Rui lied to her.

“Ohh, Peter hasn’t returned home yet, maybe he went to go to someplace. He had been going out a lot in these two days and I don’t know what is going on with him. No matter what I say, I can’t seem to get through to him these days ” Aunt Mei said helplessly when she heard Lin Rui’s words. It seemed that she could see that Peter had changed recently, but she could only blame teen ageness for this. After all, Peter is not an ordinary boy. He is a genius.

“Ohh, Don’t worry Aunt May, I will look for him and talk to him.” Since Peter is not at home, Lin Rui doesn’t plan to stay here anymore, and he plans to leaves.

“Well, Jackson, you are always welcomed here.” After walking Lin Rui to the door, Mei said with a smile.

“I Know.” Lin Rui had quickly left Peter’s house after saying that.

Walking on the side of the road, Lin Rui’s shadow was stretched by the setting sun and the dark feeling in his heart became stronger and stronger.

“Peter, where the hell are you?”
